PS: Today is still a chapter -0-

From the moment Leon returned to Campbell, all sorts of troubles, big and small, came flooding in, so much so that the young lord spent almost most of his time on the run, spending only a handful of time in the manor.

In fact, if you think about it from another angle, this is not bad. It was the successive troubles that made him grow rapidly in such a short period of time, and although his personal strength is still a gap compared to his grandfather, Campbell's comprehensive strength is far greater than that of Darren when he was in his heyday.

In terms of area and wealth, Campbell is in the lower middle of all the divided territories in the Sver Kingdom, but it is such a small territory, and now it has five superordinary-rank powerhouses and nine third-order powerhouses, and the number of people below the third order is already hundreds, and it already has the capital compared to most of the marquis and dukes of the Sverl Kingdom.

With such strength as a reliance, the young lord's way of doing things is also quietly changing, which others can also feel.

"Katerina, Red, Melissa, Hilarily, you take thirty of you, go to Locke early the next morning, contact Carey to confirm the whereabouts of those people, and then find them. ”

The people who were called gestured to him one by one, and Caterina said, "What to do after you find it?"

"Tell them that this is Redfield's territory, and send them out. ”

"Remember, be rough," Leon emphatically said, "and decide for yourself." Don't worry about any consequences. ”

"Black Town...... "The young lord's gaze swept over everyone, "Duncan, you have to work hard. I'll ask Yelena and Menshak to bring some people with you. ”

"Glad," Duncan nodded.

"Your Excellency, do you want to do the same thing against Count Green Mountain and Count Macaro?" asked Jeff, hesitantly.

"Yes," said Leon, "it is an indication of my attitude towards the territorial dispute, otherwise they would have thought that a few words from the Secretary of State would have been able to do whatever they wanted in Campbell." ”

"You don't have to worry about anything else," the young lord continued, "The actual extent of Campbell's territory is only a preliminary conclusion so far, and the Count of Green Mountain and Count Makaro are merely putting pressure on me in this way. You just want me to back down. ”

"It's too much to take for granted...... Leon smiled. "Haven't they heard of my former reputation in the royal capital of Chester? Since I am a prodigal son, then I have to be a scoundrel to deal with other nobles who offend me, right?"

There was a good-natured laugh in the council chamber, and many people knew about Leon's past reputation. But after getting along for such a long time, they all thought that this was the side of the royal capital nobles. Is there a prodigal child in this world who can achieve so much in such a short period of time?

Therefore, these people all took it for granted that Li Ang was at most careless, and his speech and demeanor were a little Meng Lang, but they didn't expect that his actions were actually worthy of these four words.

These two things were decided in a very short time. Leon motioned for Jeff to continue.

"One more thing. Jeff put down his pen and said, "Mr. Edward arrived at the manor on the third day after your departure, and he stayed here for two days before returning to the City of Chaos, and left you a letter. ”

Jeff handed over a letter and a piece of paper in his notebook, "Mr. Edward's caravan has fifteen wagons, including many categories of supplies, and this is the list. ”

Leon first took a quick look at the list and found that this time Edward's watch was very generous. In the absence of an advance payment, the young man's words at that time brought a considerable abundance of supplies. These include the ordinary standard light armor that Leon needs the most, as well as various weapons of the same quality. And the number is a hundred sets, which can be regarded as a solution to his urgent need.

In addition to this, there are several sets of good quality equipment, bundles of arrows, a decent amount of crop seeds, tools for various purposes, and ...... A large number of rare ingredients and boxes of fruit wine.

Leon was a little embarrassed by Edward's "carefulness", in fact, he would rather have more ordinary items that Campbell urgently needed in the batch of supplies than the ingredients and fruit wine.

At the end, he found several more names.

"What is this?" asked Leon.

"Mr. Edward brought with him some of the craftsmen who built the house, all of whom had many years of experience, and who would have worked for us for a year only for the remuneration and expenses. ”

Li Ang nodded, he knew that similar professional craftsmen were very stable in various places, except for last resorts, they were generally reluctant to rashly go to a place where they were unfamiliar with their lives to take on work, and it should be Edward's contribution to recruiting these people.

It seems that this fat merchant does take good care of him, although the complete set of light armor and weapons is only an ordinary standard, but a set of at least three thousand gold coins, the value of these equipment alone is more than 300,000 gold, although the unit price of other materials is low, but the amount is amazing, so the final value is also expensive. Edward didn't ask Leon in advance how his financial resources were, he directly pulled it over, this kind of move definitely requires great courage for a normal businessman, and it is estimated that the head of the subordinate branch of the Skyrim Chamber of Commerce can make such a decision.

The young lord opened the letter Edward had left behind with a hint of emotion, beginning with a compliment to him, followed by a statement of the invitation of the Council of the City of Chaos to become the thirteenth full member, of course, Edward's tone was more tactful than Erin's relay of Speaker Cristal's, and it was inevitable that he would put in his efforts to do so.

At the end of the letter, Edward tactfully recounted how he had managed to raise a large amount of supplies for Leon and deliver them to Campbell himself without much effort. And after he pointed out the value of the materials, he also specially thanked Jeff for paying one-third of the money, and as for the rest, Edward said that he would understand the young lord's difficulty, so he quite "generously" allowed Leon to choose to repay it in batches with gold coins or other products from Campbell.

Li Ang smiled and shook his head, although the other party had some careful thoughts hidden in the letter, but after all, it was considered to have opened a trade route for Campbell, and in terms of his character, he would definitely not deny this amount of up to 760,000 gold coins.

But to be honest, when Li Ang saw the amount, he was also shocked, it can be said that such a huge amount of expenses is not enough just by relying on the money he brought back.

This time, the value of a hundred sets of light armor, weapons, and four sets of enchanted equipment is relatively high, but as the young lord develops, his requirements for the quantity and quality of equipment will gradually increase, plus the various scrolls that Erin needs, the unique equipment for each companion, and various construction and development materials...... One can imagine what a terrifying amount of investment would be.

In the past, these could have been slowly developed and progressively, but during the trip to the Black Forest, Leon had already made a commitment to the ancient trees of the Great Wasteland, so all the needs would soon be on the agenda.

"I'm glad I found the Demonized Mithril Bonanza, and there's the gift of Elite Deep Roots behind it, otherwise I'd have really returned to the pre-liberation period in one ......," Leon felt glad from the bottom of his heart. (To be continued......)
